If you want to get picky with the visual effects when destroying aircraft, the really obvious flaw is the way explosions randomly clone aircraft parts so you end up with stuff like two engines or fuselage center sections.

Of course you normally do not notice unless you are replaying a track as it all happens too quickly.
